Wheat Scones with raisins

1 cup of whole wheat flour1/2 cup of plain white flour1 tablespoon of baking powder1/4 teaspoon of saltraisins- as many as you want1 tablespoon or less of sugar3 tablespoons (or so) of butter1 egg1/2 cup of milk

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.Mix all the flours, the powder, salt and sugar together. Maybe throw in the raisins. You know, throw in the raisins whenever you feel like it, or at least before your throw the mix in the oven. With a grater, grate in a little butter. Mix. Grate some more. The original recipe said until it looks like course meal. This is another good time to throw in the raisins.In another bowl, mix the egg and milk. Then slowly mix in the milk mix into the flour mix. Add and stir, add some more and stir. Do this till you have a big moist glob and start wondering to yourself if you've just made a big glob of whole wheat glue, with raisins.On cookie sheet with parchment paper or something to prevent sticking, place little balls of whole wheat raisin gloop. Throw in oven for 14 minutes. Let cool for 5 minutes. Serve hot with marmalade and butter and tea.
